The Japanese Banana Diet was been getting a lot of press lately, some good and some bad. In this article I want to discuss the Banana diet and tell you about my personal experiences of using this diet.
The Japanese Banana Diet
The first thing that you have to realize is that this diet is not for everyone. In fact, I feel that I should go ahead and tell you up front that based on my personal experience, the effectiveness of this diet really tops out at around 15 pounds. However, if you are looking to lose weight quickly then the Japanese banana diet may be just what you need.
The first thing that you need to do is eat 2 bananas before eating breakfast. In fact, many people simply substitute bananas for their current breakfast. It is suggested that you drink either water or some form of natural fruit juice (typically apple or orange juice) while on the banana diet. Do not drink soda.
You can go ahead and eat lunch as normal, except try to stop yourself when you are about 80% satisfied. It takes a few minutes for the stomach to tell the brain it is satisfied, but traditionally if you only eat 80% of what you normally eat at lunch time you will be fine according to the diet.
When dinner time comes, you must eat 2 bananas right before dinner. These 2 bananas will contain a combined estimated 180-200 calories, which means you will not be as hungry at dinner. You can follow up your bananas with some form of rice, as this is popular in Japan.
The Japanese banana diet is really all about portion control. If you can learn to eat 3-5 bananas per day before meals, and also eat smaller meals then you are on the fast track to weight loss.
The Japanese Banana diet works well, but honestly it is not what helped me lose over 60 pounds safely in just a few months. Do you want to see what did help me lose all that weight?
